LETTER FROM FORT MILL.

FORT MILL, December j.-The last two
days somewhat thawed our chilled popu-
lation; but there are indications of anoth-
er cold spell. A belt around the northern
horizon, accompanied by wind from the
same direction, is rather threatening as a
weather sign.
Our people are preparing for Christmas,
which will fall on Sunday; therefore the
youth and small fry will have to begin the
celebration of that holiday on the week
previous. This we suppose will not be OBJ
,jectionable to them.
Several people in the 'cut off" have
killed hogs. DR.. Massey has killed a fine
lot and has more of the same sort. He
will make more than enough meat and
lard to feed his family. Mr.. Jasper Kim
brell killed two hogs last week, which, to-
gether, weighed five hundred and forty
pounds and yielded one hundred and ten
pounds of lard. This is a good report; but
we have yet to hear from Gilston's "pegs."
When we do, perhaps Coitharp may make
a squeal also.
As a yield of cotton, Mr.. B. D. Springs,
we learn, has succeeded best IN eight acres
of land. He will probably gather fifteen
bales from that field. We hope to send a
report from him when he finishes gather
ing. 1t was MANFRED according to the
Furman formula.
DIR. Massey has n fourth of an acre in
Texas cotton, and expects a yield at the
rate of three thousand pounds per acre.
About a quart of seed was used in plant
ing it, wherefore the stand is not first-rate.

general topic of conversation to-day. 1t
certainly was an able discourse.

it was not replaced until last Saturday,

PERSONAL

Rev. Hosea Wise, of Macedonia, Illinois,
an uncle of Mrs. L. NJ. Grist and Miss Mary
M. Wise, accompanied by his grand-neices,
Misses Fannie and Fatina Harrison, of Spar
tanburg, is visiting those ladies in this place.
Mr.. Wise is a native of Sp~artanburg county,
but moved. to Illinois in the year 1885. He is
now II years of age, but is hale and hearty and
would readily pass for a man twenty years
younger. He is a member of Franklin Asso-
citation, United Baptists of Illinois, and has
served for thirty-two years, from time to time,
as Moderator of that Association. He visited
his native State in 1850, and on his present
return notes many changes since that time.
Advances of material prosperity are discerna-
bic by him, but he thinks our farmers would
be more prosperous if they would give more
attention to the production of grain and grasses.

CLOVER, December 5.-Mrs. J. l.. Stacy

four Of the largest weighing III pounds;
Mr.. w. F. Smith, near Bethany, raised
two pumpkins this year on n vine, the
total weight of which was two hundred
pounds. The larger n weighed 119
pounds. They were of the Mammoth va
riety.
Clover had its first experience with fire
on Tuesday night, November Goth. Be-
tween nine and ten o'clock the store of Mr..
Zimri Carroll was discovered to be on fire.
In your brief notice of the fire in your is
sue of last week you stated that part of
Mr.. Carroll's stock was saved. That is a
mistake. The house vas so far destroyed
before it was discovered that not a thing
was saved. The stock of drugs of Camp
bell & Presley was saved, but the build
ing was burned. The buildings burned
were owned by Mr.. Carroll and DR.. A. P.

IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT.

Judge Kershaw has just rendered a decision
Of local interest to our own readers, and from
the nature of the case-involving the right of a
creditor to imprison a debtor-of interestto the
general public.
On the 9Th of last month q civil action was
instituted in the Court of Common Pleas for
York county by the firm of w. l.. Roddey q
Co., of Rock Hill, plaintiff, against William L..
Erwin, defendant, based upon a store account
and three separate notes, the whole aggregat-
ing the sum of 81 ,106.44.
On the same day a warrant of attachment
against the property of the defendant, and an
order of arrest against his person, was sued out
before the Clerk of the Court of Common
Pleas for York county, at the instance of j.
+. Reid, a member of the firm of w. l.. Rod
dey g. Co., who, in the firms behalf, by affi-
davit deposed upon information and belief,
(and setting forth the sources of his informa-
ticn) that the defendant was disposing Of his
property with intent to defraud his creditors
and principally the firm of w. L. Roddey q
Co., whereupon the Clerk of the Court issued
a warrant of attachment against the property
of the defendant and an order of arrest against
his person., commanding the Sheriff to forth
with arrest the defendant if he could be found
in York county, and to hold him to bail in the
sum of 81 800, and to return the order to Wilson

THE FARMERS CONVENTION.

The second Annual Convention Of the
Farmers Association of South Carolina
was opened in Agricultural Hall, Colum-
bia, on Thursday last, shortly after noon,
being the third meeting of the Associa-
ton Since its organization.
Mr.. D. X. Norris, of Anderson, the
President, called the Convention to order,
and after addressing the delegates, the
secretary, Mr.. j. r. Duncan, of NeWberry,
called the roll, ninety-seven delegates re-
spending to their names.
York county was represented by a full
delegation as follows: l.. Lowry Smith,
w. J. Waters, II. G. Culp, Iredell Jones,
Frank H. Brown.
Under the provisions of a resolution
adopted at the last meeting, a business
committee, consisting Of one from each
county, was appointed. Captain lredell
Jones was appointed as the member OF
this committee from York.
The following resolutions were offered
by G.. w. Shell, of Laurens, and adopted
by the Convention:
Resolued. That this Farmers Convention re-
spectfully invite the Board of Trustees OF the
South Carolina College to send such one or
more of their number or OF the faculty OF the
South Carolina College to meet this Convention
Tonight at 7.3O o'clock to explain and discuss
the question of agricultural education and the
best means of promoting the same IN South
Carolina, and that a committee of three be ap-
pointed at once to extend this invitation.
Resolred, That the discussion to be had on
the subject is for the purpose OF arriving at just
conclusions, and any gentleman, whether a
member of this Convention or of the General
Assembly, who feels that he can add my light,
shall have the privilege of being heard.
Messrs. Shell, Ancrum and Fishburne
were appointed on the committee.
A resolution was adopted that a commit
tee of three be appointed to convey the
invitation above indicated, and Messrs.
G. w. Shell, of Laurens, Ancrum, of ker-
shaw, and Fishburne, of Colleton, were ap-
pointed such committee.
Captain Iredell Jones, of York, offered
a series of resolutions. The first caused
something of a sensation as it wa to the
effect that the sense of the Convention be
expressed in favor of the p~ostponement OF
any move to secure a separate Agricultural
College at this time, inasmuch as the mat
ter had been the subject of experiment in
other States and the results were not suffi-
GENTLY advanced to determine the success
of the plan. The following ones were ola
mild and general character. AL! were re-
ferred to the Committee on Resolutions.
MI. Watson, of Anderson, wanted to Of
fer a resolution in regard to the funding Of
the State debt, but a delegate suggesting
that the Legislature would probably move
in the matter, he did not insist. He, how
ever offered another resolution, which he
